Sit Zay Flowers in Week 2 due to hamstring injury risk

Zay Flowers missed Wednesday's practice with a hamstring injury. The source advises extreme caution, suggesting fantasy managers should not play him in Week 2 if possible, as hamstrings are prone to re-aggravation and the Ravens have enough depth to manage without him against the Saints.
